Chapter 270 Self-disruption
Chapter 270 Self-disruption
Fang Wenwen sat in front of her favorite carved desk, with sunlight shining through the window onto the desk. However, she could not feel any warmth at this moment, but only felt a layer of coldness covering her whole body.
Her cell phone screen was on, with a piece of news that terrified her: "Gu Qingyue has already grasped most of the matter. She found out that someone paid to falsify the facts to frame her." This piece of news was like a blockbuster bomb, causing a huge wave of shock in her heart.
"How is this possible? I did such a thorough job, how could she find out all this?" Fang Wenwen's eyes were filled with fear and disbelief. She stared at the screen of her mobile phone, as if she could make the message disappear.
Recalling how Fang Wenwen took great pains to make the video that framed Gu Qingyue.
She carefully planned every step, from hiring a private detective to follow Gu Qingyue and capture those seemingly ambiguous moments, to finding professional video editors and paying them a large sum of money to edit the video without any flaws.
She also bribed the bar staff and some people who attended the party that day in advance to keep silent about the real situation. In her opinion, everything went perfectly, and Gu Qingyue could not find evidence to refute the video.
But now, this message was like a sharp sword, piercing her heart. Fang Wenwen's hands began to tremble slightly uncontrollably, and the phone dangled in her hand, almost slipping out. Her rapid breathing could not be calmed down, and her chest rose and fell violently, as if she had just finished a long-distance run.
"Someone must be lying to me. This can't be true." Fang Wenwen tried to comfort herself, but the uneasiness in her heart grew wildly like weeds.
She stood up suddenly, but because she moved too quickly, her knee hit the table leg hard. She was in severe pain but she was completely unaware of it.
Her eyes moved around in panic, scanning every corner of the room, but she couldn't find a trace of security.
Suddenly, she seemed to be hit by something, her steps stopped, and a fierce look flashed in her eyes. "Even if she really knew, so what? I have so many tricks up my sleeve, what can she do to me?" Fang Wenwen tried to cheer herself up, but her slightly trembling lips and still wandering eyes revealed her inner panic.
Fang Wenwen decided to confirm the authenticity of the message first. She picked up the phone tremblingly and slid her finger across the screen, but she clicked on the wrong contacts several times because of nervousness.
After the call was connected, she couldn't wait to ask, "Has anyone come to you recently to ask about what happened that day? Did they say anything special?" Her voice became sharp because of nervousness, and she didn't even notice it.
The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, but this short silence seemed extremely long to Fang Wenwen. "No... no, Miss Fang, we all followed your instructions and didn't say anything." The other party's voice was trembling and sounded very nervous.
"Are you sure? If you dare to lie to me, you know the consequences." There was a threat in her tone, but this threat at this moment was more like her way of giving herself courage.
After hanging up the phone, Fang Wenwen still felt uneasy.
She started contacting those people who had been bribed by her to attend the party, but some of them's phones could not be reached, which made her heart beat faster.
"Has something really gone wrong? They won't betray me, will they?" Countless terrible thoughts flashed through Fang Wenwen's mind.
At this moment, she received another message on her mobile phone: "Gu Qingyue has found the key witness and is ready to reveal the truth." When Fang Wenwen saw this message, she felt a black screen in front of her eyes and almost fell to the ground.
"It's over, it's over..." Fang Wenwen kept muttering to herself. Her legs went weak and she slowly sat down on the ground, falling into extreme panic.
After a long time, Fang Wenwen slowly came back to her senses.
After a moment of panic, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes. She knew that she could not just sit there and wait for death.
Fang Wenwen's brain was working rapidly. Suddenly, a cunning light flashed in her eyes, and a bold and sinister plan took shape in her mind - to find a scapegoat.
The first person Fang Wenwen thought of was the video editor Zhao Yu.
She remembered that when she first met Zhao Yu, he was wearing a shirt that was a little faded from washing, and his eyes revealed an eagerness to do anything for money.
Moreover, during the transaction, Zhao Yu had cried to her many times that he was driven into desperation by debt, his credit card balances were overdue, and he was harassed by various debt collection calls every day.
Fang Wenwen feels that such a person may be willing to take more risks for money and may be more easily manipulated.
She immediately called Zhao Yu and said, "Zhao Yu, pack your things now and find a place to hide. Gu Qingyue has already found out about you, and she will soon make your deeds public. Not only will you go to jail, but you will also be ruined."
Zhao Yu was panicked on the other end of the phone: "Ms. Fang, I have always done what you said, how could this happen? What should I do?" His voice was tearful, full of fear and helplessness.
Fang Wenwen pretended to be calm and said, "Don't panic. I will give you some money. Find a place where no one can find you and hide it. When the storm is over, I will find a way to help you." In fact, Fang Wenwen knew clearly in her heart that she had no intention of helping him at all. She just wanted to calm him down and make him a scapegoat.
After hanging up the phone, Fang Wenwen began to frantically sort out her chat records and transaction records with Zhao Yu on her computer, not letting go of any information that could be used as a handle. She deleted all the evidence that could prove her involvement in the matter, as well as the transfer records of her payment.
She then spent several hours carefully fabricating some chat records.
In these forged records, it was Zhao Yu who took the initiative to contact her, saying that he knew the conflict between her and Gu Qingyue and could use his skills to help her "teach a lesson" to Gu Qingyue. However, she repeatedly refused and finally warned Zhao Yu not to do anything illegal.
In order to make these records look more authentic, she also imitated Zhao Yu's tone and word usage, deliberately inserting some typos and colloquial expressions into her sentences.
After doing all this, Fang Wenwen turned her attention to the bar staff and party participants who had been bribed by her. If something went wrong with Zhao Yu, someone else would have to take the blame.
She chose the bartender Xiao Li, who was timid and easily frightened.
She sent a message to Xiao Li: "Have you been in contact with Gu Qingyue's people recently? I warn you, I have evidence that you took money to do things. Now you'd better do as I say and put the blame on the editor Zhao Yu. Just say that he edited the video and you didn't dare to tell the truth because he threatened you."
After sending the message, she still felt uneasy.
Xiao Li quickly replied: "Ms. Fang, I really didn't betray you. I listened to you and did everything you said."
Fang Wenwen smiled with satisfaction. As long as these people could do as she asked, it would be difficult for Gu Qingyue to do anything to her even if she had some evidence.
However, Fang Wenwen knew in her heart that this plan was not foolproof.
But at this moment she had no other choice but to go all out.
"Gu Qingyue, do you think you can beat me? I won't be defeated by you so easily." Fang Wenwen's eyes were full of madness and unwillingness.
In the following days, Fang Wenwen kept an eye on Gu Qingyue's movements, and at the same time, she kept putting pressure on the "scapegoats" she had chosen to ensure that they would not turn against her. She pretended to be calm on the surface, but she was always uneasy in her heart, wondering whether her risky move could really help her get out of trouble.
